Opened with “Springtime in the Sierras”, and “Blondie’s anniversary”.
The ozoner appears to have closed after a double feature of “Love Story” and “Kelly’s Heroes” on August 29, 1971 as the Brielle Drive-In Theatre. Its phone number is reassigned to a NJ plumbing service not long after.
Drive-in was intact in 1972, but demolished by 1979 at least by looking at aerial photos.
September 23rd, 1949 grand opening ad in photo section.
The location for this drive-in was NJ 34 between NJ 35 and Lakewood Rd. Now an empty field, only the outline of the property remains.
Here is a 1956 aerial view:

Could this have been one of the many Drive-ins that Walter Reade operated along the Jersey shore ??
